Meet Bindi:)
Stumpy tail cattle dog, she went to a puppy rescue in IN with her 10 puppies awhile ago.
She did not do very well there and we all fell in love with her so she was transported back to us.

She’s Heeler through and through, so we ask that only people experienced with the breed even consider apply to foster or foster to adopt her.

The GOOD—she loves people, never met a stranger and bonds quickly with everyone she meets, no stranger danger with this girl.
She walks fairly well on a leash.
She knows sit and come and recalls 100% of the time, even with some distractions.
She has zero food or toy aggression.
She is very goofy and loving.
She is kennel trained, and did so quickly.

The NOT SO GOOD—she is NOT good with any animal smaller than her, period. She will climb a tree in a split second after a bird.
She will chase a cat and once fixated it’s difficult to redirect her, she’s hell bent in getting at the cat, bird, squirrel etc. We don’t know what she would do if she catches what she’s after but she did sn**ch up a statue cat by the back of the neck and shake it before putting it back down.
I would not trust her with small children especially if they are toddling and or running.
She’s also, right now, not able to cohabitate with other dogs, she’s getting better at this also but we are keeping everyone separated with double barriers, she is resource guarding of her people towards other dogs.

We are working on these issues and she’s showing great progress, we are also setting up a behavioral specialist and trainer evaluation, the same one that helped us with alumni Bernies issues.

If you are interested please fill out and application and put Bindi on it.

She gets spayed tomorrow so as soon as recovery is over we will begin training.

Have you ever been to a rural animal shelter? Seriously, be honest, I GENUINELY WANT TO KNOW how many people have. There’s nothing pleasant about it. It stinks, it’s sad, it can be shocking at times, you can hardly walk due to crowding and pop up kennels, they always seem to be running out of supplies. People say, “well I can’t go it’s too depressing”. Um, well, reality can be depressing. But what we get to do as humans as make a moment a little brighter. For the scared one, for the one that’s been there years. For the one that’s kennel reactive but perfect the minute you take the chance to get him out..

I had personally never been to one until I was an adult, so no shade, I just believe everyone should force themselves to see reality even if it’s in the smallest capacity. Your community = your problem.

🐾 WE’VE BEEN BUSY UP IN ILLINOIS! 🐾

Of the 10 dogs we sent to Illinois on September 7th, ALL 10 HAVE FOUND HOMES! ❤️🏡

A HUGE thank you to all of our incredible fosters and adopters for opening your hearts and homes to these deserving furbabies! We couldn’t do this without you, and we are so grateful to everyone who has helped make this possible! 🐶💕

And we aren’t slowing down anytime soon! We have some BIG plans ahead, including giving FOUR MORE LUCKY FURBABIES their freedom rides this Sunday! 🚐🐾

These four have been overlooked for far too long, and we are so excited to finally give them the chance they deserve!

🌹 ROSEMARY

Rosemary came into the shelter at just SIX WEEKS OLD and has spent all but six weeks of her life behind kennel bars. She survived parvo, endured mange, and has spent nearly her entire life waiting for her chance. Now, after being a long-term shelter resident, she is FINALLY getting her freedom ride! Her new foster will be her very first home❤️

🐾 FLICK

Flick came into the shelter at around FOUR MONTHS OLD and has been a long-term shelter resident, waiting for his chance to experience life outside those shelter walls. After growing up in a shelter, Flick is finally ready to take his freedom ride! We can't wait to see what his future holds! ❤️

🐶 GYPSY

Gypsy came into the shelter at just SEVEN WEEKS OLD and has since grown up there. Instead of growing up in a loving home, she's spent her puppyhood in a shelter kennel. She deserves the chance to experience all the things a puppy should: soft beds, toys, family adventures, and a person to call her own! 💕
And if you're interested in opening your home to a puppy, many of Gypsy's siblings are STILL at the shelter waiting for their chances, too! Please reach out if you can help! 🏡

🥹 CHUCKLES

Chuckles came into the shelter as an owner surrender and is the sweetest, most docile, submissive girl you could ask for. ❤️

The shelter is a difficult place for any dog, but especially for one who once knew what it meant to have a home. Chuckles is such a gentle, kind soul, and she deserves to feel safe and loved again. We are so happy that her wait is finally coming to an end!

🚐 NOW, WE NEED YOUR HELP TO GET THEM HERE!

All FOUR of these deserving dogs are scheduled to take their freedom rides this Sunday, but we need to raise $300 to cover the gas needed to transport them to Illinois!

These dogs have waited long enough. Let's not let something as simple as gas money stand between them and their second chances! ❤️

Every single dollar helps get them one step closer to freedom. If you can't donate, please consider sharing this post to help us reach someone who can!

Four more freedom rides. Four more lives changed forever. And four more dogs who will finally get the chance to experience what life outside a shelter can be. 🐾❤️
